[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 465161, member: 1233"] Why not call this person and ask her to explain self advocacy as it applies to your son in her care. You thought it meant that he should tell her he is set up for science and is ready for help, but when he told her he had the login info, he was told he couldn't do it. then you were told you were supposed to tell them when he had the info - how is he supposed to self advocate when they won't listen to him and act when he does? I would let her explain it. Then chop up her non-action and irrational explanations and feed them back with a big dose of logic. I used to LOVE to watch my mother do this. She chopped up a self-important vice principal in front of me once - never raised her voice, never used a bad word, used his own explanation and the school rules, school mission statement, etc... to feed him his liver. Never have I seen someone that shocked - he was truly terrified of her after that - even 20 yrs later when he was the principal at a school my dad taught at. [/QUOTE]
